2 Corinthians 1:3-5
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.”
TL;DR:
When you’re walking through pain, remember that God is not only with you—He is the God of all comfort. He turns your suffering into compassion, so you can bring healing to others. Let His comfort overflow through you today.
Yesterday, a dear friend asked me how I could have so much compassion. I told her the truth: it’s because I’ve had so much pain. That’s what this verse in 2 Corinthians is all about. God takes our valleys and uses them for His glory—not by wasting them, but by transforming them into opportunities to comfort others.
It’s never easy to walk through hardship. Whether it’s grief, health battles, broken relationships, or just those heavy days—you know the kind—I’ve been there. But something beautiful happens when we walk through those seasons with our feet planted firmly on the Rock of Jesus. Even in the storm, there is comfort. There is peace. There is purpose.
Jesus doesn’t promise us a pain-free life, but He promises to be with us in every moment. And even more, He invites us to take the comfort we’ve received from Him and offer it to others. It’s a divine exchange: our brokenness becomes a bridge of hope for someone else.
So today, live in His promise, not your pain. If you’re hurting, know that comfort is already flowing your way through Christ. And if you’ve been comforted, be that light for someone else. A kind word, a quiet prayer, a listening ear—these are holy gifts we give because we know what it feels like to need them.
Be inspired today to comfort others just as Jesus comforts you. 😇🦅❤️🌸🙏
